The Seven Core Capabilities of an Industrial Data Platform: David Ariens - Founder, The IT/OT Insider.
The industrial data stack was never built for enterprise-wide intelligence. It was built in silos, optimized for local decisions.
As a result, it is not designed to support unified, contextualized, and scalable data management across an organization.
And thatโs why Industrial Data Platforms are essential for scaling digital transformation.ย
To help organizations understand what makes such a platform effective, David Ariens and The IT/OT Insider team created the Industrial Data Platform Capability Map, outlining the seven key capabilities every platform should have:
1. ๐๐จ๐ง๐ง๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ โ a secure and scalable connectivity layer to integrate different data sources into the Industrial Data Platform.
2. ๐๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ณ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง & ๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ โ delivering data enriched with the right context, so users donโt have to gather and piece together information from multiple sources manually.
3. ๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ โ Detecting and fixing data issues in your pipeline, from sensor to final report.
4. ๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ค๐๐ซ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐ โ The ability to ingest, store, and manage contextualized data at scale, enabling efficient data subscription and large-scale querying.ย
5. ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฌ โ The capability to perform analytics and machine learning within the data platform, or at the edge, close to where the data is generated.
6. ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ฎ๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ณ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง โ The capability to deliver high-quality, contextualized data to users through intuitive and accessible interfaces for fast, informed decision-making.
7. ๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ โ The capability to openly expose platform data to external users and applications through standard interfaces and integrations.

In the latest episode of the AI in Manufacturing podcast, I sat down with David, Founder of IT/OT Insider, to dive deeper into these capabilities and how organizations can implement them.
We also discussed the IT/OT Academy, an online training program designed to help IT and OT professionals build a shared vocabulary, framework, and collaboration strategy to move digital initiatives beyond pilot projects and into full-scale plant deployment.
